Labyrinth

The Labyrinth is a large maze constructed by the mortal Daedalus at the behest of the king of the Gods himself, Zeus in order to contain the key to Pandora's Box.

The Labyrinth.

This simple mission consumed Zeus to the point that he did not allow Daedalus to embark on any repair duties and instead create a great structure to serve as a prison for the daughter of Hephaestus. Daedalus believed it to be his greatest work and superior to the Great Chain that kept Olympus tied to the Underworld. The heart of the Labyrinth itself hung on the Great Chain of Balance and thus meant it resided between Olympus and Hades. This meant that if ever one side began to rise or fall, the Labyrinth would shift accordingly and thus be forever shifted. Another aspect of the design involved The Three Judges being the final latch of the lock.

Sent to the Labyrinth to find Pandora, and use her as a means of destroying The Flame of Olympus, Kratos used Boreas' Icestorm to activate the Labyrinth, find Pandora and, with her help, survive the challenges and traps of the Labyrinth. Kratos then climbs Mount Olympus, pulls the Labyrinth up the mountain, and destroys most of Olympus and its supports from the inside in the process.
